Answer:

41.7 kJ/mol

Explanation:

ln(k) = ln(A) − Eₐ/(RT)

Pick any two points.  I'll choose 100°C and 400°C.

When T = 100°C = 373 K, k = 1.10×10⁻⁹ L/mol s:

ln(1.10×10⁻⁹) = ln(A) − Eₐ/(R × 373)

When T = 400°C = 673 K, k = 4.40×10⁻⁷ L/mol s:

ln(4.40×10⁻⁷) = ln(A) − Eₐ/(R × 673)

Subtract the two equations and solve:

ln(4.40×10⁻⁷) −  ln(1.10×10⁻⁹) = -Eₐ/(R × 673) + Eₐ/(R × 373)

5.991 = 0.00120 Eₐ/R

Eₐ/R = 5013.4

Eₐ = 41700 J/mol

Eₐ = 41.7 kJ/mol
